Texas natives return to home state for Frisco Bowl

San Diego State junior quarterback Ryan Agnew played in front of about 12,000 people during his regular-season games at Carroll High School in Southlake, Texas.

That number was even bigger when Agnew competed in the playoffs.

Carroll High School, about 30 miles away, had crowds that aren’t too far off in size from what Agnew could expect at Toyota Stadium next Wednesday against Ohio in the Frisco Bowl.

In other words, Agnew is no stranger to playing in front of a big crowd in a Texas stadium.

Agnew used Friday Night Lights, a movie about high school football in Texas, as a comparison to show how integral football is to the state’s lifestyle.
